Rava payasam/Sooji kheer is one of the easiest rava recipes.Every friday, i have to make some
payasam,
sweet pongal or
rava kesari for vilakku pooja neivedyam.So i keep thinking to do varieties of payasam recipes.I came to know about this payasam from Sendhil’s Chinna maami in Kumbakonam.Once she made this for lunch.I saw how she made and asked the recipe too.From that time, i started making this payasam for friday pooja whenever i run short of time.It can be made very quickly and tastes soooo good.After so many attempts, i started making on my own way with some improvemnets.The best thing of this payasam is its yield.Just 1/4 cup of rava is enough to make payasam for 4-5 persons.So u can try this for ur guests.Its an easy dessert recipe.I heard people give this sooji kheer for 6 months baby too.Its a very filling and yummy payasam recipe!!Do try this payasam.U’ll love it like me

Please adjust the water+milk quantity according to the consistency u need.

This payasam thickens when it cools.So make it slightly watery before switching off the flame.

Adjust the quantity of sugar as per ur taste.We felt it tastes great only if sugar is on higher side.
